Any Doom Heads?

[skeptik]

But there's two sides to the genre...to be modest. Do you want the more Traditional oriented side or the more Extreme side? There's a striking difference.

 

[Mort Divine]

Oh, I should also mention.

Electric Wizard - Dopethrone, just so you can try the "stoner" doom style.

 

[The Subjugator]

Um, I want some from both.

 

[Erik]

Um, I want some from both.

cathedral "forest of equilibrium"
saint vitus "born too late" or really any other of their albums
candlemass "epicus doomicus metallicus"
solitude aeturnus "beyond the crimson horizon"
winter "into darkness"
reverend bizarre "in the rectory of the bizarre reverend"
thergothon "stream from the heavens"
skepticism "stormcrowfleet"
my dying bride "as the flower withers"
anathema "pentecost ]|["

there's ten to start with, they all range from 8.5-10 on a scale to 10 :shrug:

[Mythos Inibri]

I did not say it was doom, said there are doomy elements. A lot of music has doomy elements.

Susperia mentioned them in the doom thread. I just stated there are some doomy elements in what I have heard instead of going THEY'RE NOT DOOM FUCK YOU BAAHH FUCK aarggg LOOK AT ME I'M A DOOM PURIST.

I was not saying check out Tristania if you like doom metal. A few parts had some doomy feeling imo. I'm not discussing this any further.

... and yes I do listen to real doom and know what is it. I should have just waited for someone to say TRISTANIA IS SHIT ARR FUCK YOU I'M A PIRATE!

Somone better talk about Evoken -embrace the emptiness now.

You Are Insane

 

[Carcassian]

That makes it harder...
* SNIPPED *

Paradise Lost:
Lost Paradise
NO NO NO NO NO. For the fucking LAST TIME, Shades Of God.

See above^^

 

[Erik]

shades of god is not as fantastic as you think it is

it's also not really a doom metal album

 

[CF87]

Shades of God is cool. I like icon, and draconian times more.

You Are Insane

Probably

 

[Carcassian]

Erik, in order

Yes it is - it's easily the best Paradise Lost album, and better than Black Murder Day by a country mile.

I know it isn't - but then neither is Lost Paradise, which is so over rated it hurts.

 

[Erik]

better than Black Murder Day by a country mile.

this actually made me laugh out loud in front of my computer
take that as you should

and yeah "lost paradise" is pretty bland, i muchly prefer "gothic"

Agreed.

 

[CF87]

Brave Murder Day > Shades of God

Sounds of Decay 3 song e,p > Shades of God

Forest of Equilbrium(best doom album) > whatever you put right here..... destroyed

 

[Carcassian]

Brave Murder Day > Shades of God

Sounds of Decay 3 song e,p > Shades of God

Forest of Equilbrium(best doom album) < Relentless

Dolt.

1) Wrong.

2) Wrong.

3) Forest of Equilibrium, while a superior release, is not the best doom release. See my choice right there, but there are at least a dozen others I could pick.

 

[CF87]

Relentless is by who ?

 

[Carcassian]

Relentless is by who ?

Pentagram

 

[CF87]

I did not know the first album was also called relentless till now(have not heard it), thought it was s/t. I enjoy day of reckoning.

Actually mate, you're kind of right - it has been released under both "Relentless" and "Pentagram". Great band, you should def. pick their catalogue up - pretty much the epitomy of the simple guitar playing but still great music motif.

 

[Manbient]

this thread is still saddening me.

How about i mention a band, 3 of you can tell me they are not doom, 4 more can tell me they suck, or they were better with the older stuff, and last but not least one person in particular can tell me to go back to sot2.

my holy trinity of doom goes like this:
Skepticism
Esoteric
Until Death Overtakes Me

i await ridicule.

 

[IOfTheStorm]

No suprise, these bands are the perfect top doom 3 for an Opeth fan.
